Abstract

Risk control is a crucial element to survival of man and organization. Risk management is the systematic process of identification, analysis, development of solutions and monitoring of a broad spectrum of facts and variables, necessary to gain control of threats and opportunities, with the objective to obtain a sustainable competitive advantage. Due to the competitive and turbulent environment and new social, economic and legal demands, organizations not only have to accomplish their mission and achieve specific goals, but are also increasingly compelled to demonstrate the availability of structured management systems capable of attending to the necessities of all parts involved. This study aims to gather information which allows not only to comprehend and to demonstrate the vital importance of risk management in an tech organization s effort to successfully accomplish its mission, achieve its goals and to survive, but to propose guidelines for achieving risk management as well. The evolution of fundamentals, concepts, definitions and tools for risk management and their relation with the organizational structure were explored. The organizational structure should not only be in harmony with the organization s purposes, but should also be adjusted to risk management by assembling infrastructure, processes, techniques and tools which allow the organization to identify and draw advantage of opportunities and to reduce possible threats and losses.
